Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

What travellers are saying
- Gary A6 contributionsAmazing destination. Safe, fun, friendly. Food was tremendous. Surrounded by ruins and art at every turn. The acropolis is always in view and you can feel safe at all hours. People were all warm and welcoming. 100% recommend!Written 25 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Olga Porterfield35 contributionsThis a gorgeous "village" under the Acropolis which was build by the stonemasons and carpenters from the islands who had worked in restorations of the Acropolis temples. They created a mini island village in the middle of the bustling capital.
A pure delight.Written 18 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The narrow streets are full of small shops, vintage items, and cozy cafés. Our walk was wonderful, especially with the beautiful view of the Acropolis, though it’s good to stay alert in some busier spots where it can feel a bit crowded. Despite that, it’s a unique experience, and we’d love to visit again!Written 31 October 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Thomas VOakland, CA18,523 contributionsIt's an interesting neighborhood and one where we sought out lunch, successfully. Lots of street art and it is a little skruffy, but we thought that was OK. Still very much in the center of things.Written 16 November 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- KPR1955Deeside, UK1,845 contributionsThis is what used to be an almost derelict industrial area but over the last few years has developed into a very pleasant area for an evening. Lots of coffee shops, bars, eateries and with a metro station on your doorstep.
If you’re feeling brave then you can take a meal on the elevated restaurant that hoists you many metres above technopolis.Written 13 July 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
